Am i correctly feeding my bettas2007-11-24 23:09:31

The way i feed my bettas is; 3 pellets when i wake up (morning) and then i feed them 3 more before bed (night). On tuesdays i do not feed my bettas. Is this correct handling of my fish?

Answers:

You are doing a fine job. One thing you might want to consider, though, is adding a bit of variety with the food you give your betta. Maybe give him 3 pellets in the morning and then a bit of frozen bloodworm in the evening. Any kind of meaty food is good for bettas (frozen bloodworms, frozen daphnia, frozen brine shrimp, live brine shrimp, freeze dried brine shrimp, freeze dried bloodworms, live mosquito larvae, etc etc etc). Skipping a day of feeding is really good for your fish's digestive system.

That's fine. Everyone has their own way of feeding their fish. I feed my fish once a day,l what they'll eat in a few minutes, and skip a day during the week. I know a lot of betta owners that only feed a few pellets a day, so sounds ok what you're doing.

my betta fish has lived for more than 4 moths already, and i kind of feed it irregularly. i skip about 3 days during the week, and hte days that i do feed mine, i just put in however many pellets i feel like putting in. someitmes it's about 30, but he only eats 5.

but yes, you have a great way of feeding htem. That is hte way that is required to feed them.

that other guy was right about eveyone having their own way of feeding them.
